Pixel 6 owner here. I word of warning.
the reviews stating the slow finger print reader is concerning.
If i can go back in time, I would not buy the pixel 6 because the fingerprint reader is embarrassingly slow and misreads if you change lighting conditions. It's simply awful and makes checking the phone a chore. I hate it. No screen protector issue, not my phone (it was exchanged), and it's a common complaint. If you are coming from a phone that had even an average sensor, this will annoy you to no end.

The Google Tensor chips have such unreliable and poor mobile connections that a significant number of users have to reboot regularly or toggle airplane mode on/off just to get data working. It always happens when i drive. Check reddits pixel subs for more info. It doesn't look like any of those issues will be fixed because they simply aren't fixed in the flagships.
It seems to be an issue when you transition towers, so if you travel a lot or travel through dead zones, it'll happen more frequently. An unacceptable problem most in-studio reviews don't address, but real-world users struggle with, and have been since launch.

warning: This kind of trade in deal came around 1.5 yrs ago for 4a 5g. The say they will respect trade in value if old phone is received within a month of you receiving the new phone. But then they delayed the return pkg . And instead of giving $285 trade in value they gave $15. Everyone had to fight with customer care to get back the money. And they have terrible customer care.

Several reviews of the final product are indicating it's pretty similar to the 6 and 6 Pro. Some early stories and very early (unofficial) hands on videos said it was a faster sensor, but many of the reviews coming out today of the production model ay it's similar in speed. Maybe a hair faster here and there, but not so much as to make a noticeable difference in day-to-day use.

Just sign up at https://one.google.com and the discount for Google Store should take effect shortly after. Wait a few mins.
This discount is not instant for me. It says you will get 10% credits back to store credit.

Quote from bzbzb :
Sorry, my bad. I meant 2TB at $10. Mistyped as 10TB. It's only for a month to get the 10% discount. I wouldn't plan to use it unless you want to keep the subscription.
Maybe just a clarification for anyone considering jumping on a storage plan for the discount, this isn't actually a discount. It's a statement credit for a future purchase. I have the annual 2TB plan and noticed that's how it worked when I made my last phone purchase. I ended up putting the credit towards a Nest doorbell a few months later.

note that the 10% discount for 2tb+ google one subscribers is a google store credit, not 10% off the total price: "Get 10% back in Store credit on Google Store purchases"

I only see 5 years of security updates from the spec sheet. I don't see 5 yeas of OS updates. Sticking to iPhone until Google can get it together.

I see they still accept an iphone 7 but with 256gb for $300.

If one has a 64gb iphone 7, and attempts to submit this as a 256gb, would they flatly deny the trade in and drop the trade in to $0? or does one have a chance of getting some value?

Asking for a friend. =)

$300 for my 3a XL is tempting, but I'll lose that unlimited photo storage. Don't know what to do.

works for me if itll apply to me ordering 2 phones with this deal and getting the 10% credit on the second order.

I have a cracked but fully functional 3a xl. Don't really need this but the idea of good photos sounds good as both me and my wife own a OnePlus and camera is just not cutting it. Don't want to spend the $190 but seems like the 3a xl may never get $300 ever. Any thoughts?

Does anybody know if you select Fi as the carrier on Google store, if the charge comes from Fi ? If so, added bonus for those with the AMEX offer to stack with the great trade-in offers.
